Dne 7. b\u0159ezna 1962 zas\u00e1hla atlantick\u00e9 pob\u0159e\u017e\u00ed prudk\u00e1 severov\u00fdchodn\u00ed bou\u0159e zn\u00e1m\u00e1 jako Bou\u0159e na Popele\u010dn\u00ed st\u0159edu. Bou\u0159e byla nemilosrdn\u00e1 a p\u0159inesla siln\u00e9 v\u011btry, z\u00e1plavy a spou\u0161\u0165. Mezi ty, kte\u0159\u00ed byli zasa\u017eeni, pat\u0159ili i divoc\u00ed pon\u00edci na ostrovech Assateague a Chincoteague.<\/p>\n\n
Jedn\u00edm z nejslavn\u011bj\u0161\u00edch pon\u00edk\u016f na ostrovech byla Misty z Chincoteague, hlavn\u00ed hrdinka milovan\u00e9 d\u011btsk\u00e9 knihy Marguerite Henryov\u00e9. Misty se stala n\u00e1rodn\u00ed celebritou po vyd\u00e1n\u00ed knihy v roce 1947.<\/p>\n\n
Kdy\u017e ude\u0159ila Bou\u0159e na Popele\u010dn\u00ed st\u0159edu, byla Misty b\u0159ez\u00ed a pob\u00fdvala na ran\u010di Beebe na ostrov\u011b Chincoteague. S ostrovem v chaosu a vodou nevhodnou k pit\u00ed byli lidsk\u00e9 obyvatel\u00e9 evakuov\u00e1ni. Misty v\u0161ak z\u016fstala a ukryla se v kuchyni rodiny.<\/p>\n\n
Zpr\u00e1vy o bou\u0159i a Mistin\u011b b\u0159ezosti se rychle \u0161\u00ed\u0159ily a lid\u00e9 po cel\u00e9 zemi se ob\u00e1vali o jej\u00ed bezpe\u010dnost. Telefonn\u00ed linky byly zablokovan\u00e9 hovory od d\u011bt\u00ed, kter\u00e9 se ptaly na Mistinu pohodu.<\/p>\n\n
Navzdory s\u00edle bou\u0159e Misty p\u0159e\u017eila. P\u0159est\u00e1la bou\u0159i v kuchyni rodiny Beebe, kde j\u00ed d\u011blala spole\u010dnost ko\u010dka a ona olizovala rozlitou melasu.<\/p>\n\n
P\u0159esto\u017ee Misty bou\u0159i p\u0159e\u017eila, ne v\u0161ichni pon\u00edci na ostrovech m\u011bli stejn\u00e9 \u0161t\u011bst\u00ed. Z 300 pon\u00edk\u016f, kte\u0159\u00ed \u017eili na obou ostrovech, jich 55 uhynulo na Assateague a 90 na Chincoteague. Mnoho se jich utopilo a bylo odneseno na mo\u0159e.<\/p>\n\n
Ztr\u00e1ta pon\u00edk\u016f byla trag\u00e9di\u00ed, ale p\u0159edstavovala tak\u00e9 hrozbu pro m\u00edstn\u00ed ekonomiku. Bez pon\u00edk\u016f by byla ohro\u017eena ka\u017edoro\u010dn\u00ed akce ohrazov\u00e1n\u00ed pon\u00edk\u016f, kter\u00e1 p\u0159il\u00e1kala na Chincoteague turisty.<\/p>\n\n
Misty hr\u00e1la kl\u00ed\u010dovou roli p\u0159i zotaven\u00ed st\u00e1da pon\u00edk\u016f. Jej\u00ed p\u0159e\u017eit\u00ed a narozen\u00ed jej\u00edho h\u0159\u00edb\u011bte, Stormy, vlilo do komunity nad\u011bji. Spole\u010dnost Twentieth Century Fox znovu uvedla svou filmovou adaptaci \u201eMisty z Chincoteague\u201c jako sb\u00edrku pro \u201eMisty Disaster Fund\u201c, kter\u00fd byl pou\u017eit k dopln\u011bn\u00ed st\u00e1da pon\u00edk\u016f.<\/p>\n\n
Kr\u00e1tce po bou\u0159i Misty porodila Stormy, k\u0159ehkou a \u017eivou klisni\u010dku. Jm\u00e9no h\u0159\u00edb\u011bte bylo inspirov\u00e1no bou\u0159\u00ed, kterou Misty p\u0159e\u017eila.<\/p>\n\n
Misty a Stormy se vydaly na propaga\u010dn\u00ed turn\u00e9, aby zv\u00fd\u0161ily pov\u011bdom\u00ed o Misty Disaster Fund. Vystupovaly v divadlech v Marylandu a Virginii, kde je v\u00edtaly nad\u0161en\u00e9 davy. Turn\u00e9 bylo \u00fasp\u011b\u0161n\u00e9 a v dubnu nab\u00eddli majitel\u00e9 pon\u00edk\u016f v Chincoteague, \u017ee prodaj\u00ed sv\u00e9 pon\u00edky zp\u011bt do st\u00e1da, aby pomohli obnovit jeho po\u010det.<\/p>\n\n
Misty z Chincoteague a jej\u00ed h\u0159\u00edb\u011b Stormy se po Bou\u0159i na Popele\u010dn\u00ed st\u0159edu staly symboly nad\u011bje a odolnosti. Jejich p\u0159\u00edb\u011bh inspiruje lidi dodnes. Akce ohrazov\u00e1n\u00ed pon\u00edk\u016f se st\u00e1le kon\u00e1 ka\u017ed\u00fd rok a odkaz Misty a Stormy \u017eije v srdc\u00edch milovn\u00edk\u016f zv\u00ed\u0159at v\u0161ude.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
